Sources say that two community representatives of Omid-e Sabz Township in western Kabul have been in detention for about a week after being summoned by the Taliban’s Ministry of Justice.
Sources told the Hasht-e Subh Daily on Sunday, November 15, that Abdul Raziq Mosaddiq and Wakil Jafari were summoned to the Taliban’s Ministry of Justice last week along with two other community representatives and subsequently detained.
According to the sources, the other two representatives were released on Sunday after agreeing to vacate Omid-e Sabz Township and signing the relevant form.
However, Abdul Raziq Mosaddiq and Wakil Jafari remain in detention, and no information has so far been released about their possible release.
Sources say the families of the two representatives have had no information about their condition or whereabouts since their detention.
The detentions come as the Taliban have declared the land in Omid-e Sabz Township to be state property and ordered homeowners to vacate their houses.
